@airindia - I keep flying your airline for these reasons: a) a fond hope that somewhere, sometime you will metamorphose into a truly world class airline and b) you will not descend into the cynical situation of your prime competitor and take your customers for the figurative ride
Alas, my hopes were ground to dust. All I did was ask for some yogurt instead of dinner. The attendant offered it to 2 passengers in front after having forgotten my seat number and didn’t once look at me.
I confronted her with it. She offered me a token apology and did not care to ensure she will make good. Also she said she had too many passengers today. This was AI 2876 from HYD to BOM. While I was too tired to make a scene I asked her whether she’s taking customers for granted

1/ The first of two speeches by UK military / intelligence leaders today. The later one by Rich Knighton, the new chief of defence staff. This one by Blaise Metreweli, the chief of MI6. "We are now operating in a space between peace and war." gov.uk/government/spe…
2/ Metreweli says speech is not a "global threat tour". Says China "a central part of the global transformation taking place this century" and "essential that we, as MI6, continue to inform the govt's understanding of China’s rise and the implications for UK national security." Image
3/ Metreweli says "Russia is testing us in the grey zone with tactics that are just below the threshold of war" and includes "Drones buzzing airports and bases." About as close to an official attribution as you're going to get. gov.uk/government/spe…Image

It's now clear what lay behind the Liverpool FC parade tragedy. It was nothing but a case of road rage, and over-entitlement, by a narcissistic driver, who thinks everything is about them.

I write this as a lifelong cyclist, who has long experienced this aggressive and threatening behaviour.

1/🧵theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/d…
A minority of drivers, turn into an over-entitled monster, when they get behind the wheel of a car, acting aggressively to other road users. God forbid if you get in their way, or slow their journey by even a second. They use their car as a weapon, with which to intimidate others.

I repeat, this is a small, but significant minority.
2/
This man stopped the public learning what lay behind this tragedy, by making out he had a defence, was going to plead not guilty, and had panicked because he was threatened, until his late guilty plea.

Trump posted this without knowing Nick Reiner was under arrest. He posted it assuming one of his fans murdered Rob Reiner. So if you want to know how Trump will react if fans start murdering his enemies, now you know. He'll celebrate and blame the victims. Image
Those claiming Trump knew he was commenting on a family dispute are not reading the confirmed, universally reported on post above. Trump makes very clear *his* understanding at the time he composed his post—which may have been last night—was that Rob was killed over his politics.
The post above is far more dangerous, disgusting, and diabolical than anyone is yet realizing. This isn't just Donald Trump pissing on the grave of a critic, it's him signaling that those who do violence in his name are justified because they were—definitionally—provoked into it.

Your physique should never revolve around trying to get as big as you can:

There’s no real utility that comes from overloading size…

You should want to be jacked no question, but simultaneously lean + athletic;

This is the type of physique that enhances your quality of life.
Adding size at the cost of increasing body fat is a fools game:

Not only are you becoming less healthy, but also far less attractive with each increasing percent of body fat…
Your end goal should be reaching genetic potential for muscle mass at a single digit body fat percentage;

This is where life has a completely different feel to it.

That’s where you begin to look like a God…

They told us hair loss is genetic.

But your hair CAN come back.

Here’s what’s killing your hair cells and how to bring them back to life (before it's permanent):🧵 Image
1. Hair loss doesn’t mean your follicles are dead.

They’re dormant.

Low blood flow. Mitochondrial breakdown. Chronic inflammation. Hormonal dysfunction.

Hair loss isn’t a genetic sentence, it’s a metabolic malfunction.

And you can reverse it. Image
2. The Real Causes (Not “Just Genetics”)

• DHT sensitivity – only harmful in inflamed scalps
• Scalp hypoxia – low blood flow = starving follicles
• Mitochondrial dysfunction – low ATP = weak growth
• Inflammatory cytokines – TNF-α blocks the growth phase

Genetics load the gun.
Your environment pulls the trigger.Image

20 Democrat states are suing the Trump Administration to block its H-1B visa crackdown.

These states claim they need H-1Bs to import "skilled foreign workers."

But let's take a look at how they're actually using these visas. 🧵
We'll start with California, whose AG accused the Trump Administration of trying to "shut out the skilled workers America depends on."

He claimed H-1Bs are needed to import "highly skilled foreign national workers" to fix "nationwide labor shortages."
Image
That's odd, given that California has been the site of some of the most egregious H-1B abuse.

Take the infamous case of Southern California Edison: Hundreds of U.S. tech workers were laid off and then forced to train their H-1B replacements just to get their severance package. Image

The market sees $HIMS as a GLP-1 company.

But $HIMS is actually building a platform that will dominate the healthcare industry.

Labs positions $HIMS to become a multi-trillion dollar healthcare giant, by unleashing the power of peptides and precision medicine 🧵 Image
1. Firstly, $HIMS revenue is up 10X in 5 years while the stock now trades at ~4 times sales.

By itself, this means $HIMS is tremendously undervalued. Image
2. The reason $HIMS has grown so fast is management excels at solving problems for patients.

As you can see below, however, revenue growth ebbs and flows, as $HIMS management identifies and deploys new growth vectors.

First it was boner pills ('22). Then GLP-1s ('24). Image

🧵 THREAD | Ukraine strikes Russian submarine in Novorossiysk.
1/ Ukraine’s Security Service (@ServiceSsu) has carried out a historic special operation in the port of #Novorossiysk. For the first time ever, underwater drones struck and disabled a #Russian Kilo-class (Project 636.3 “Varshavyanka”) #submarine.
2/ The attack was executed using “Sub Sea Baby” underwater drones, which detonated near the submarine, causing critical damage. The vessel is effectively put out of action. Image
3/ This Russian submarine was armed with four Kalibr cruise missile launchers — the same missiles routinely used by Russia to strike Ukrainian cities and civilian infrastructure.

Ukrainian 🇺🇦 forces liberated most of Kupiansk city in a rather uncommon counter-attack

Despite setbacks in Pokrovsk, Siversk or Vovchansk, counter-offensive operations in Kupiansk managed to save the city and its surrondings for additionnal months.

🧵THREAD🧵1/10 ⬇️ Image
Few days ago, Volodymyr Zelensky filmed himself at the entrance of the city of Kupiansk, less than a month after Vladimir Putin claimed it was liberated by russian forces, inviting western medias into it. Image
A year ago, russian forces crossed the Oskil river for the first time in Dvorichna area.

Back then, the infiltration remained small. However, during the spring and the summer of this year, they accumulated forces, using underground pipes to enter Kupiansk city. Image
